History has embraced the Cœur de Béarn with passion! With its châteaux standing witness to conquests and royal presence, bastides from the Middle Ages and fortified villages show us the real character of this country.

Whether you are a family, couples or friends, find yourself a home from home: flats, guest houses, hotels, campsites, group accommodation or special accommodation. There is something for everyone and especially for all budgets. Cœur de Béarn welcomes you for a weekend or a longer stay.

Land of Jurançon wine but also of the Roussanne peach, duck, cheese and other delicacies, Cœur de Béarn offers delicious discoveries. Assiettes de Pays, Maîtres Restaurateurs and other small producers have forged a way of life infused with a sense of conviviality.

Conviviality and pleasure are always at the core of Cœur de Béarn. Traditions, local cuisine, gastronomy and music are a part of our daily lives. From Orthez to Monein, harvest parties, local festivities, classical music festivals and jazz concerts are but some of the many events that will enchant you throughout the seasons!

Clos Laplume

On the way into Monein, on a hillside overlooking the village centre and the church of St.Girons, the Clos Laplume is a traditional estate surrounded by vines. André Laplume relaunched the small family estate around 15 years ago. André and his daughter Camille greet guests in a beautifully converted barn, which features exposed pebble walls, light coloured timbers and a large farmhouse table. Visitors can tour the set up, including the traditional cask storage cellar. Two sweet and dry wines are on offer. These are made with Petit Manseng, the only grape variety grown on the estate.
